Advanced Cloud Backup

Many people assume that data they store in the cloud is safe. As everyone stores more in the cloud, it’s the logical place criminals attack. A recent study from Google and CrowdStrike says that over 40% of data breaches now involve cloud storage.

This means it’s more important than ever to ensure your cloud data is protected by an immutable backup protocol like Pegasus Advanced Cloud Backup. Immutable backups are unalterable copies of data that cannot be modified, re-encrypted, or deleted for a preset retention period. Stored in a different cloud than the source data in a strict read-only state, immutable backups serve as a critical defense against ransomware attacks, internal threats, and accidental deletions by ensuring data remains pristine for recovery.

Free backup isn’t your backup- it’s their backup

When cloud providers say backup is included, they are typically referring to backup in scenarios where they experience catastrophic hardware failure. Free cloud backups are typically not designed to protect against cybercriminal activity directed at one client or a subset of a client’s data.

Free cloud backups are typically stored for 30 days or less, so if an attacker stays hidden for more than a month, it may be impossible to restore your data to a known-good state without immutable backup.

Advanced means shorter disruptions

Free cloud backups and even paid archive services like Microsoft Purview and Google Vault tend to be a little clunky to restore, often requiring a delay as a batch of data is recovered. People then need to sift through the restored data to find and merge what they need. Data protected by Advanced Cloud Backup can be restored with granular precision, enabling ultra-fast restores of the precise data you need where you need it. Most restores are needed for simple mistakes, not massive security breaches, so immutable backups add value even when you’re not suffering a doomsday scenario.

What Advanced Cloud Backup protects

Advanced Cloud Backup provides immutable storage of Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, including email, calendars, contacts, tasks, OneDrive, Teams, SharePoint, Google Drive, and more. Backup copies are made multiple times each day and stored in different datacenters than the source data. Retention periods go well beyond 30 days and are typically set to months or years.
